it fell near a home on Route 390 in Promised Land.
Bottom left:  Milford firefighter Tommy Dayton sleeps after
and exhausting night of fighting a fire while fellow
firefighter Joe Ropke watches hoses continue to water
down collapsed rubble. 

Bottom Right

to work on fallen trees in his LaPlume driveway with
his brother Martin.  Mr. Stover has to clear

property at Promised Land earlier in the week
